A associate professor of writing and linguistics says President Trump and the Republican Party allowed “prejudice and fear” to “rule the day” in the 2018 mid-term elections, and the American people were the ultimate losers as a result.

Georgia Southern University’s Jared Yates Sexton, who teaches fiction and creative writing including “working class literature” and “changing masculine roles,” writes in the Globe and Mail that the president “peddled a truly repugnant and factually untrue narrative revolving around a caravan of migrants from Central America.” Mr. Trump also used bad words like “dangerous” and “diseases” while discussing the matter.

“It was a disgusting technique,” Sexton says, “one that should have earned a long-heralded rebuke, but Mr. Trump has shown there’s little consequence in this country for lies or racist behaviour.”

The professor then pivots to his employer’s home state where he accuses Governor-elect Brian Kemp of “purging” Georgia’s voter rolls of “thousands of African-Americans.” He says Kemp “mishandled” polling sites in minority-heavy areas and cautioned that the New Black Panther Party would “intimidate voters.”

Professor Sexton must have missed this, not to mention the mainstream media-muzzled shenanigans going on in Florida’s (heavily Democratic) Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
